Against the Tide, The Fate of the New England Fisherman

Against the Tide, The Fate of the New England Fisherman

by Richard Adams Carey

  • NATURAL HISTORY
  • 2000
  • PAPER
  • 381 PAGES

To learn more about the crisis that faces the American fishing industry, Richard Adams Carey spent a year working alongside fishermen off the shores of Cape Cod. What resulted is this book, a portrait of a declining industry and depleted natural resources. It deals admirably with complicated issues of natural history and humanism, showing great respect for both the ocean and the fishermen that depend on it.  (USE44, $21.95)
